EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intense focus and determination of tennis and table tennis legend, Fred Perry (1909-1995), as he prepares for a crucial match. The image, taken on the cover of the 27th of June, 1936 issue of the Weekly Illustrated magazine, showcases the English athlete in his prime. Born in Stockport, England, Perry began his sports career as a table tennis player, reaching the pinnacle of the sport by becoming the English champion at the age of 16. However, it was in tennis where he truly made his mark. Perry's impressive skills on the court earned him the title of World No. 1, and he went on to win a total of 10 Major titles, including eight Grand Slams and two Pro Slams in singles competition. The photograph captures Perry in mid-action, his gaze fixed on the ball as he readies himself for the next serve. The crisp white tennis outfit and focused expression convey the intensity and dedication that propelled him to the top of the sport. The table tennis racket and balls in the background serve as a reminder of his earlier successes in that sport, highlighting his versatility and athletic prowess. Perry's impact on tennis extends beyond his impressive record, as he is also credited with popularizing the use of sweatbands and short sleeves on the court. This photograph is a testament to his enduring legacy as one of the greatest athletes in British sports history.
